From Contract to Closing

From Contract to Closing

From the time you and the seller sign the sales contract until closing, I will attend to the details and make sure events go smoothly.


Guidance


  • Explain Ohio's real estate procedures and assist you in the selection of inspection professionals.

  • Provide required disclosure forms to protect you as a consumer.

  • Schedule home inspections. Professional home inspection companies will provide a written report on wiring, insulation, heating and cooling systems, and other structural and mechanical details. Fees for inspections are usually based on the price or the size of the property.

  • Coordinate with an appraiser if necessary. Banks and lenders require that the property be appraised prior to issuing a mortgage.

  • Order the title search. A search of public records to determine that title transfers over a 30-year period have been recorded correctly. This assures your clear ownership.

Real Estate Glossary

 
Graduated Payment Mortgages: mortgages that begin with lower monthly payments that get slowly larger over a period of years, eventually reaching a fixed level and remaining there for the life of the loan. Graduated payment loans may be good if you expect your annual income to increase.
 
Rehabilitation Mortgage: a mortgage that covers the costs of rehabilitating (repairing or Improving) a property; some rehabilitation mortgages - like the FHA's 203(k) - allow a borrower to roll the costs of rehabilitation and home purchase into one mortgage loan.
 
No Cost Loan: there are many variations of a no cost loan. Generally, it is a loan that does not charge for items such as title insurance, escrow fees, settlement fees, appraisal, recording fees or notary fees. It may also offer no points. This lessens the need for upfront cash during the buying process however no cost loans have a higher interest rate.
